<content type='text'>
There are a couple of places where (P)Dprintk is used which is an old
compile time enabled printk wrapper. Convert it to the generic
pr_debug().

As a microoptimisation, make apic_verbosity unsigned.  This will make
apic_printk(APIC_QUIET, ...) expand into just printk(...) with the
surrounding condition and a reference to apic_verbosity removed.

<title>x86: APIC: remove apic_write_around(); use alternatives</title>

<id>593f4a788e5d09e9f00182561437461b0b564de4</id>
<content type='text'>
Use alternatives to select the workaround for the 11AP Pentium erratum
for the affected steppings on the fly rather than build time.  Remove the
X86_GOOD_APIC configuration option and replace all the calls to
apic_write_around() with plain apic_write(), protecting accesses to the
ESR as appropriate due to the 3AP Pentium erratum.  Remove
apic_read_around() and all its invocations altogether as not needed.
Remove apic_write_atomic() and all its implementing backends.  The use of
ASM_OUTPUT2() is not strictly needed for input constraints, but I have
used it for readability's sake.

I had the feeling no one else was brave enough to do it, so I went ahead
and here it is.  Verified by checking the generated assembly and tested
with both a 32-bit and a 64-bit configuration, also with the 11AP
"feature" forced on and verified with gdb on /proc/kcore to work as
expected (as an 11AP machines are quite hard to get hands on these days).
Some script complained about the use of "volatile", but apic_write() needs
it for the same reason and is effectively a replacement for writel(), so I
have disregarded it.

I am not sure what the policy wrt defconfig files is, they are generated
and there is risk of a conflict resulting from an unrelated change, so I
have left changes to them out.  The option will get removed from them at
the next run.

Some testing with machines other than mine will be needed to avoid some
stupid mistake, but despite its volume, the change is not really that
intrusive, so I am fairly confident that because it works for me, it will
everywhere.

instead of calling it from trap_init()

also move init ioapic mapping out of apic_32.c

so 32 bit do same as 64 bit

Remove the "disable_8254_timer" and "enable_8254_timer" kernel
parameters.  Now that AEOI acknowledgements are no longer needed for
correct timer operation, the 8259A can be kept disabled unconditionally
unless interrupts, either timer or watchdog ones, are actually passed
through it.
